June 2026 Layoffs - Anyone Else Feeling the Strain?
2E
0x2e8f…59bcHey everyone. So, the news is out about the ~640 people let go on June 17th. Honestly, it's hard not to feel a bit on edge, even if your team wasn't directly impacted this time. The vibe in the remaining teams feels...tense. People are double-checking their work, maybe a little too much, and there's a quiet anxiety about who might be next. Anyone else noticing this? Or am I just projecting? It's tough when you see so many colleagues, people you've worked with for years, suddenly gone. Management's been giving the usual 'streamlining for future growth' talk, but it's hard to swallow when you're seeing headcount shrink. Curious to hear how others are navigating this, and if there's any intel on what's driving these cuts beyond the standard 'economic headwinds'. Stay strong out there.
